- Cook the eggs for 2-4 minutes, depending on how runny you like them.
- To make the spicy butter, use a good quality unsalted butter and adjust the amount of chili flakes to your taste.
- For a richer yogurt sauce, use whole milk yogurt or Greek yogurt.
- Serve the poached eggs immediately with the spicy butter and yogurt sauce, garnished with fresh herbs.
